VcPkg: The Open Source Cross-Platform Package Manager from Microsoft
Details
This month, Richard Thomson will give us an introduction to vcpkg, Microsoft's open source cross-platform package manager for C++.
Here's what we want from a package manager:
- works identically across platforms
- integrates with existing builds
- easy to find packages
- easy to consume packages
- can use prebuilt binaries to save build time
- can use local private packages as easily as public packages
- works with continuous integration systems
- doesn't require languages other than C/C++
How well does vcpkg fit the bill? Join us and find out!
This will be an online meeting only, so you are on your own for food and drinks!
